Jesus, the state of education these days.

Why do you feel it necessary to correct people's spelling and grammar Flossie? Just interested


I only do it gross cases such as the use of txtspeak ( which is for retarded morons ), Americanisms such as "alternate" instead of "alternative", and where people are so bloody stupid they don't know how to form a simple past tense.

In fact I think my gander is up on this issue because of Lisa's abuse of the English language, she is incapable of using the correct tense or grammar for the most basic of sentences, and so I think I see a Lisa whenever I see a poster making a similar error to Lisa.
